"Smart Lad": Gary Kasparov Praises Indian Grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa
Chess legend Gary Kasparov praised young grandmaster R Praggnanandhaa, who gave autographs to fans during the Rapid and Blitz tournament, and said the way he was giving signature means "hand doesn't get sore so quickly". Garry Gasparov posted a video on X with the caption: "Smart lad; a fast and short signature means your hand doesn't get sore so quickly!"
